To Play For Harvard Requires Brains On Ice

A small excerpt from the Boston Globe article which talks about the hockey program at Harvard and one of its newest freshman recruits, Habs prospect Louis Leblanc:

Leblanc, the freshman from Montreal, says that when he was interviewed by NHL teams before the draft this spring, he encountered a lot of resistance to his Harvard plans. “Most teams didn’t really understand my thought process,” he says. “Obviously it was a concern for me, but I trust coach Donato, and I kind of bought what he told me. He went here. He played in the NHL. He had a 13-year career. It worked out fine for him.”
